Wendy's Pretzel Bacon Cheeseburger

kelmac07 · 07-13-2013, 01:04 PM

Had one of these for lunch yesterday...this thing was AWESOME!!! Going back today to get another one.

If you like a tasty, messy burger...this one's for you.

1/2 pound burger with lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, ketchup, and mayonnaise) with melted cheddar cheese, applewood smoked bacon, and a sweet and smokey honey mustard sauce placed between a pretzel bun

And of course, mine was a double.

Never had a Pretzel bun, I'm interested. It's really rare I eat Fast Food, but this might be worth the pain

GEEZUS that looks excruciatingly good.
I can hear the cholesterols bouncing off one another in my blood, and all I did
was look at that.

Zane · 07-13-2013, 10:08 PM

That burger is 920 calories alone. But worth it i bet.

Maybe I talk Mickey into this for lunch..... Hmmm...

n3uka · 07-13-2013, 10:54 PM

Great. Now I'm hungry

Dave128 · 07-13-2013, 11:04 PM

That looks yummy!

OLS · 07-14-2013, 10:10 AM

920 calories doesn't seem excessive in the modern fast food environment,
and certainly fair for what I see on that cardboard box. Sure, it is 2/3 of
a reasonable day's caloric intake, but I am not sure that I would want much
else to eat for the day after that. I think if people remember that there is
no outcome other than bad for exceeding 1500-1800 a day, eating one of
those can still be reasonable. Its eating that for lunch and then going home
that night and eating a full meal that is inexcusable.

My take on it exactly. Once a week is the max for fast food or take out, but if we do, it's either for a lunch, or an early dinner. No ill effects.

Stopped in today for lunch and saw a Pretzel Pub Chicken on the menu so I gave it a try and thought it was really good. Pretty much the same toppings as the burger minus the bacon. If you liked the Pretzel burger this is worth trying...

hudd · 07-14-2013, 10:22 PM

had one this afternoon. Thought it was awesome as well. At least after taking the weeds off it. Don't care for that style of lettuce.

Looks delicious, how was the grease level? I've always found Wendy's to be excessive, like oil soaked 100% through the bottom bun type excessive. This one doesn't look too bad though, maybe the pretzel bun is grease resistant.

montecristo#2 · 07-15-2013, 01:11 AM

The Wendy's near me is not that greasy.

Had one last week as I love pretzels. Went with the 1/4 lb. Not a bad burger, but I thought the pretzel could have been a little better. Not as soft as I would have preferred.
